Hello My PA’s Post

For all my Senior friends from NorthJersey.com and the Greater Bergen County Community Actions - NJ program offers up to $15K in home renovations for vulnerable groups Healthy Homes program offers up to $15K in home renovations for vulnerable groups For those who find themselves struggling to afford the necessary home repairs and improvements to keep their environment safe, there's a new program that aims to help. Greater Bergen Community Action has launched its Healthy Homes program, an initiative that aims to remediate environmental hazards in 140 residential units throughout Bergen and Passaic counties. For each, the organization is offering up to $15,000 worth of essential home improvements — to address risks like mold, lead and structural deficiencies — to vulnerable income-eligible populations like seniors age 65 years and older, disabled individuals and families with young children. It is funded through a grant from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, and Program Director Avery Headley said GBCA was one of just 20 organizations nationwide — and one of two in New Jersey — to receive the grant. https://lnkd.in/e2XMrhh7 https://lnkd.in/eVWB_HS4

In my latest post, I look at pivotal events in the last five years and the mounding pressure this places on Associations and their Manager. Associations are not always afforded the ability to adjust like many corporations, but for many Associations, the need to wade through these waters of change is now. I created Building Bloc NW to help navigate Associations through overwhelming moments. "A reason, or a season" to help make the shift an Association needs, but missing the bandwidth to drive the change. https://lnkd.in/gPziCgc9

Excellence in action…

HOW IT SHOULD BE DONE

In this video, I address some of the most pressing issues facing our community. From ensuring election integrity and tackling media bias to fighting corruption, I discuss why these issues are central to this election. I also highlight the importance of supporting families, revitalizing local manufacturing for economic growth, and the cost benefits of producing goods here at home. Additionally, I explore why Saskatchewan must have provincial jurisdiction over law enforcement to strengthen community safety and ensure our unique needs are prioritized. A vote for me and the Buffalo Party is a vote for accountability, self-reliance, and real support for Saskatchewan families.
